Caution
To reduce the risk of injury to the eyes, do not look directly into the remote control laser light and do not point the laser light into anyone’s eyes. The remote control is equipped with a Class II laser that emits radiation.
To operate the remote control, point the remote at the projection screen or at the projector (not at the computer). The range of optimum operation is about 15 feet (4.5m).
To use the laser pointer, press and hold the Laser button. The laser turns off when the button is released, or times out after two (2) minutes of continuous operation.
Pressing the remote’s power button when the projector’s power toggle switch is in the Off position does not cause the projector to power up. You need to put the projector’s power toggle switch in the On position to use the remote to power on the projector.
When the projector is running, you can press the remote’s Power button to place the projector in the Off state and power it off. For more information, see “Shutting down the projector” on page
Left and right remote mouse buttons are used to mimic the actions of the left and right mouse buttons on your computer. Mouse cursor movement is managed via the remote’s cursor control. Connect a USB cable to the USB connector on the computer and to the projector to use these buttons and control your computer’s mouse. When you do this for the first time, the Add New Hardware wizard may appear. See “Using the projector with Windows 98” on page
